It turns out, the two people I'd be speaking with were Nina Nazionale and Debra Bach of the New York Historical Society Museum & Library. Not only were they interested in New York's brewing history, they we're traveling to Albany to see what brewery ephemera and artifacts, both the State Museum and Library had, and were willing to loan, for their upcoming exhibition on the history of beer making, in primarily New York City, but the rest of the state as well.

I am very happy to announce that Beer Here: Brewing New York's History, opens to the public, on May 25, 2012. If you are anywhere near Manhattan between the end of May and and the beginning of September, please go check out this fun and exciting exhibit—I know I will!

Now, all I have to do is convince my bosses to do an exhibit on Albany Ale. I may have to ply them with beer.
